Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the pre-defined geometry includes source distances among the P audio sources, distances among the N audio receivers, and distances between the N audio receivers and the P audio sources.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the post processor comprises a digital beam forming processor to generate the P orthogonal beams corresponding to the reconstituted P audio signals.
5. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein each of the P orthogonal beams has a peak at a direction associated with one of the P audio sources.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the wavefront demultiplexing transformation includes information related to the pre-defined geometry.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein the information related to the pre-defined geometry includes the various time delays from the P audio sources to the N data sets.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein one of the outputs is a linear combination of the inputs weighted by a corresponding weighting parameter.
11. The method of claim 9 wherein the pre-defined geometry includes source distances among the P audio sources, distances among the N audio receivers, and distances between the N audio receivers and the P audio sources.
12. The method of claim 9 wherein generating the output signals comprises generating the P orthogonal beams corresponding to the reconstituted P audio signals using a digital beam forming processor.
13. The method of claim 12 wherein each of the P orthogonal beams has a peak at a direction associated with one of the P audio sources.
14. The method of claim 9 wherein the wavefront demultiplexing transformation includes information related to the pre-defined geometry.
15. The method of claim 14 wherein the information related to the pre-defined geometry includes the various time delays from the P audio sources to the N data sets.
16. The method of claim 9 wherein one of the outputs is a linear combination of the inputs weighted by a corresponding weighting parameter.
19. The communication system of claim 17 wherein the pre-defined geometry includes source distances among the P audio sources, distances among the N audio receivers, and distances between the N audio receivers and the P audio sources.
20. The communication system of claim 17 wherein one of the outputs is a linear combination of the inputs weighted by a corresponding weighting parameter.
